Talking about the final chapter of your life has many benefits. One of the most helpful is understanding how to ensure the choices made about your health and quality of life are yours.

Join the team from Worry-Free Wednesdays to learn the four things you can do to ensure the end-of-life decisions you want made for yourself or your loved ones are well-documented and communicated.

They’ll show you how to build an end-of-life plan and then how to share it and update it once a year on a Wednesday of your choosing, living worry-free knowing your “house is in order” before you die.

Free; no RSVP needed.

    Summer lunch hours for High Point Community Center (12:00 – 1:00) are NOT correct.  I was there today at 11:55am with 3 hungry kids and the food was gone.  After I questioned this, and asked how it could be “all gone” when I was there 5 minutes before the stated distribution time, I was told the food is given out at *11:30am*

    Distribution seems directed to children in the summer camp at the Community Center – nothing left for walk-ins, i.e., neighborhood kids

Sorry, comment time is over.
